10 THE MORNING OREGONIAN, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1912. SENATOR BOURNE -ANSWERS FULTON Dealing .With Standard Oi Was Effort to Minimize Panic, He Says. PERSONALINTERESTDENIED i Erroneous Views Held by People Responsible for Attitude Against Him on Oregon Irrigation j Fond, Declares Solon. Senator Bourne yesterday made the following statement in reply to the at tack made by Senator Fulton in his address before the Selling Club Wed nesday evening:: The outcome of the Standard Oil rait baa fully Justified the persistent efforts I made to secure a settlement of the suit In 1908 and history will put to shame those men who now criticise my course. In an effort to minimize the panic, I endeavored on my own initiative, not as the agent or repre sentative" of Standard OH, but as one of the people's representatives, to bring; the , Standard Oil Company and the Government tog-ether in a settlement. I succeeded in Vetting tender of settlement toy the com pany, which settlement would have Included the payment of a very large fine, consent to the entry of a decree enjoining; unlawful acts In restraitn of trade and co-operation in the framing of an effective Federal In corporation law which would prevent over capitalization and guarantee Governmental supervision. That would have been a result earnestly desired. What the American people really got was a court decree compelling; the company to handle its business through sev eral separate corporations, the only ma terial effect being that Standard Oil stock rapidly advanced In value $300,000,000. The people will pay the additional cost of con ducting the business through many sepa rate concerns instead of one. Since selected by the people of this state as one of her National public servants I have felt It my duty first to protect the personal liberty of our citizens and next to protect their property rights. I have sought conferences with the Standard Oil people, the Morgan people, the Steel people, the Karriman people, the Hill people and other' dominant financial powers and business leaders of the country whenever occasion presented Itself, In order to learn from them their Ideas relative to the co-operation of the commercial force In society and Its .responsiveness and accountability to the police force of the Government, and to as certain from them where, in their opinions, business methods based upon their expert- I ence could be instilled Into Government op erations so that a system of merit and pro motion might be substituted for the plan of demerit and demotion which now prevails. Prevent Fanle was Aim, As above stated, I endeavored In 1908 to bring about a settlement between the Gov ernment and the Standard Oil Company, be lieving such a result would prevent the continuance of the panic started in 1907 and that the Government could secure better terms by a settlement than through tfc e court, and President Roosevelt have tte co-operation of the big business Interests of tha country In his effort to secure a Federal Incorporation law that would bring all big business corporations directly under the strong arm of the Government, a law that would clearly define what the cor porations could, must and must not do. told', President Roosevelt that I thought the time opportune to make a satisfactory settlement with the Standard Oil Company and secure Its co-operation and that of other large business Interests in getting Federal Incorporation law that would pro vide a harbor of refuge for honest business, with the Government the harbormaster; and the penltlentlary a certain abode for the dishonest business man. I sought an inter view with Mr. Arch bold, and explained to him: the advantages of a Federal Incorpora tion law, and the desirability of having large corporations responsible to one dom inant power, the Federal Goverment. rather than to 40 states, each witn aiirerent jaws, making It Impossible to tell what a cor poration doing business In many states could or oould not do. I further, dwelt on the necessity of the police force tn society being superior to and dominating the commercial force; ' otherwise our Government would be short-lived, anarchy would follow and the largest property holders be the ones first destroyed. Several conferences were held with the representative or the Department of Justice, and several times I thought a settlement would be effected. No secrecy wen made of any conference. I never sneaked in at the back door to hold con ferences with either capital or labor. My constituents are welcome to know where I to. when and how. I had no personal Interest In this matter other than a desire to minimize the panic and 'secure the support of big business In frt for a virile Federal incorporation law. I have never bad any Interests in any of the "Standard Oil companies. Have known Mr Arrhbold and his ramlly for several year, and have vlstted his homo. Neither he nor any of his associates have ever talked to me about any Congressional or state legislation other man my uuk wnn him 'on a Federal Incorporation law and the -popular government f unrtamentals. I hvK ntivht and obtained during the past few years conferences with many of our leading business men for tne purpose or. demonstrating how popular government, namely, the Initiative and referendum, re call ' direct primaries and corrupt practices arts generally adopted rt-ouia De me uesi npntMiinn nil honest business could have. Ever since X have been one of Oregon's National servants 1 have been the subject of greater misrepresentation than any other man I Know or in in ir of some papers and indivldauls have been to destroy any standing I might have locally v..i.iu- mihor than to assist and co-operate with me in trying to render good service to me p-p and state, because of the position I tem porarily occupied. Transition Period at Hand. period or . knn'm'ar In transition from the- old political system of misuse of money, character assassination misrepresentation, political poison, lies and distorted statements and sophistry as pre sented through that portion of j r and by Individuals who are for hire to any one who can and will pay the price. Into the new and better plan of presenta- ?on of records, ideas, principle and solu tions tending towards Improvement in Gov ernment and conditions of society. Tir. Fulton's present solicitude for the direct primary law indicates remarkable SrcVress. In 1909 he advised Statement No 1 mender, of the Legislature to regard Jh?r solemn pledges to the PW thus defeat Senator Chamberlain after he W received the vote of the people for 7.5fitatei Senator.

But if it be argued that it is the duty of Senators to exercise influence with the Sec retary to see that their states are awarded s7due proportion of the reclamation funds, fet us see where the responsibility lies in this Instance, Mr. Pulton went to the senate March 4. 1903- When I went to fhisenate In March. 1907.

The Government had undertaken projects in oth er states so extensive as to preclude appor tioning to Oregon her share on a pro rata basts, and then set aside S1.00O.00O for a project In Texas all while Mr. Fulton was in the Senate and I was not. Views Erroneous. He Says. There are two err6neous views regarding the reclamation funds which have been In dustriously disseminated by men who think it aesirabie to misrepresent facts. One or these errors Is ihat under the law the State or Oregon would be entitled to have ex pended here the 39.700.000 received from the sales of land in this state. The other error Is the assumption that this money would be spent the sajne as other Federal appropriations are spent. The fact Is that unaer the law the state would be entitled to have expended on Oregon projects 61 per cent ui me receipts irom land sales, or, in rouna numbers. S4.bou.uuo. But this is in the nature of a loan to settlers, who must repay tne money in ten annual installments. A river and harbor appropriation or a pub lic ouiiaing appropriation Is a permanent Investment a net rain to the state. The reclamation funds are temporary Investments which must be repaid to the United State Treasury. Subject to tha condition that ther are feasible and practicable projects, Oregon was entitled to have exnended in reclama tion projects something over $4,850,000. The allotments made to Oregon nrolects un to June 30, 1911. amounted to 4.178. 990.27 and tne net investments to $2,669,655.80. At the time when the projects were adonted the department found only two projects feasi ble, the Umatilla ard the K. a math. The Malheur project would have been found feasible but for the difficulty in inducing landowners to agree to the terms submitted by the Reclamation Service. Because there were not sufficient projects In Oregon. and because of poor judgment In the depart ment, the Government undertook a larger number of projects in other states than could be constructed with the funds avail able to become available within a num ber of years, and there has been an Inade quacy of funds ever since. As will be seen by the list given above, no new projects have been adopted by the Reclamation Service since 1906. - Since the reclamation law made the adop tion of projects dependent upon feasibility and practicability, and since feasible proj ects were not found in Oregon when funds were available and no funds have been for he adoption of new projects since 1906. It is apparent that Oregon suffered no injury tn rough tne repeal of section 9. For the Information of readers I auote In full section 9 of the reclamation law, i which section was repealed In 1910: "That It Is hereby declared to be the duty of the Secretary of the Interior in carrying out the provisions of this act, so 1 far as the same may be practicable, and ! subject to the existence of feasible lrrlga- j tlon projects, to expend the major portion of the funds arising from the sale of public lands within each state and territory here inbefore named lor the benefit ox arid and semi-arid lands within the limits of such state or territory; provided that the Secre tary may temporarily use such portion of said funds for the benefit of arid or semi- arid lands In any particular state or terri tory nereinoexore named as ne may aeem advisable, but when so used the excess shall be restored to the fund as soon as prac ticable, to the end that ultimately, and In any event, within each ten-year period after tha passage of this act, the expenditures for the benent oi tne saia states ana terri tories shall be equalized according to the proportions and subject to the conditions as to practicability and iraeimiity aioretsua. 5TRAINS TORUNTO EUGENE EVERY DAY Oregon Electric Plans Two Limited, Two Locals and "Owl" Each Direction. .

PIAX Visiting Xnrses' Association Aids In Educating Public on Methods of Combating Scourge. For the purpose of awakening inter est In the National attempt to eradicate the great white plague an exhibition consisting: of charts, maps, models and stereoptlcon slides is planned to be held in Portland towards the end of the month. To that end a rally was held last Tuesday in the City and Coun. ty Medical rooms in the Medical build- ins, when the co-operation of promi nent men and women in Portland was secured for the National Tuberculosis Exhibit to be given here under the aus pices of the Visiting- Nurses Associa tion. W. M. Cosper, in charge of the West of Missouri exhibit was introduced to the assembly by the chairman of the day. Mrs. H. Trumbull. Mr. Cosper save a talk on the exhibit in general and on the possibility, in fact, almost certainty, of eradicating the terrible disease provided the co-operation of the public was secured. The exhibit has been shown previ ously in 45 cities during the past four years. It is entirely educational, large ly pictorial and consists of maps, models and stereoptlcon views, and is staged with the main intention of showing the possibility of overcoming the aifection that accounts for one- seventh of the deaths In 'the world every year, according to the best med ical authorities. With the aim of inducing everybody to view the exhibition, and thereafter to think about the subject, no admis sion is charged. Wide public interest is necessary if the educational feature of the exhibit Is to be as successful as it has been in other states. At the meeting a general committee was appointed to act in conjunction with the Visiting Nurses' Association. This committee consists of a number of leading physicians, the city and county officials, and various men and women prominent In the civic life of the city as well as representatives of the philanthropical societies. This general committee will meet today at 4 P. M. in the Medical build ing, to name the sub-committees. Vari ous other points of importance will be decided upon, such as the location of the exhibit and the date. The State Federation of Woman's Clubs offered $50 towards the heavy expenses, which have to be borne, for the most part, by the Visiting Nurses' Association. WOMEN ARE SUSPENDED Matron Simmons and Miss Reed Out Pending Inquiry. Pursuant to a resolution of the po lice committee of the Executive Board, Matron Simmons of the police depart ment, and Delia Reed, stenographer to Chief Slover, were suspended yester day, pending a hearing of charges against them. Both women are under indictment for the same tacts. It is charged taht the two accused Darticipated in a raid upon packing cases stored in the police station and containing merchandise held as evi dence against a band of shop-lifters. Five trains each way every day will be the schedule maintained by the Or egon Electric between Portland and Eugene following the inauguration of service on the new line next Wednes day. Two trains in each direction will be limited, making the run of 121 miles in four hours; two each way will be lo cals, making all stops and running be tween the two cities in five hours, and the fifth will be a night train carry ing a sleeping car. W. E. Coman, general freight and passenger agent of the Oregon EleO' trie, announced yesterday that the fol lowing service will be established. Southbound Local, leave Portland 6:30 A. M., arrive Eugene 11:30 A. M.; limited, leave Portland 8:40 A. M. rive Eugene 12:40 P. M.; local, leave Portland 11 A. M., arrive Eugene 4 P.

The limited service will make it pos slble for persons to leave ' Eugene in the morning, transact business in Port land and return to their homes the same evening. The night schedule will aim to serve patrons at Albany, as the southbound train will remain there un til E o'clock in the morning. Forest Grove Gets Limited. In addition to this service two local trains will be operated between Port land and Albany and another limited train will be put in commission be tween Portland and Salem, leaving the capital at 8 A. M. and arriving here at 9:30 A. M.: leaving Portland at 6 f. M. and arriving at Salem at 6:30. For the first time since the Oregon Electric has been in operation, a lim ited train will be operated between Portland and Forest Grove, leaving Forest Grove at 8 A. M. and arriving here at 9 P. M. It will leave Portland at 4:50 P. M. and reach Forest Grove at 6:50 P. M. This time 1b considerably faster than that now made between the two points. Stops will be made at Hlllsboro. The schedule as It applies to Port land is based on the Jefferson-street station. Twenty minutes additional are allowed for running through the city to the North Bank station. New Track, to Be Built. Additional service will be provided between Portland and Garden Home to accommodate the local business. Fol lowing the inauguration of service to Eugene next Wednesday immediately after the formal celebration there on Tuesday, 62-trains will be in operation between Portland and Garden Home dally 28 each way. Many new pass ing tracks will be constructed to care for the heavy traffic "The function of an electric line is to give quick, frequent and regular service." said Mr. Coman yesterday. "Our aim will be to satisfy these de mands at all times." Everv industry in Eugene will be -represented by a float, and the "made- in-Eugene ' products will De wen fea tured in the parade on Tuesday. To show lust what the Willamette Valley will produce from an agricultural standDolnt. special committees are now at work' obtaining exhibits for floats that are to appear In tne paraae. Soil Exhibits to Be Feature. To emphasize the agricultural fea ture, one section of the parade will be set aside for the exhibits of the soil. and it will take on the appearance of a traveling land show. It is expected that many farmers of the Willamette Valley will appear in the parade with their products, and this feature will be more in the nature of a harvest festival Darade than the street show of the average holiday celebration. The progress Eugene has made in re cent vears also will be shown by vari ous floats. To demonstrate that the city has taken on metropolitan airs. the fire department win maie a snow ing of the old and new apparatus. The hand reel of former years will precede the horse-drawn aparatus, and then will follow the modern automobile flre fightlng machine which the City of Eugene recently purchased. In order to crowd as many events as possible in a short space of time, the parade will move promptly ai i tr. m., and the line of march will be over tha principal business and residence streets. Three blocks nave Deen set aside in the residence district for the school children, and more than 2000 boys and girls, all waving American flags, will greet the participants oi tne paraae. The Royal Rosarians will return this salute, and Governor West, who is to be in Eugene for the celebration, will review the school children. Each class will be) lined up in charge of its teach- and the school feature will be in accordance with reviews arranged for Presidential visits. Stndents Practice Yells. Students from the University of Ore gon, several hundred in number, are rehearsing special yells with which to give the Portland excursionists a rous ing reception, and the students will be assembled at the Eugene terminus of the line when the first train pulls in. Motion pictures of the Eugene cele hration will be shown all over the Northwest and in Eastern picture cir cuits. Through Melvin G. Winstock, of Portland, arrangements have been made to have operators present, and several hundred feet of film will be made. The pictures will show the arrival of the special, parade, street decorations and prominent business men making ad dresses. It is the purpose of the Eu gene Commercial Club to buy one of the reels for the future, and exhibit it at various times to show the enthu siasm of the city and the various fea tures of the celebration in honor of the coming of electric transportation. From the number of inquiries com ing into the Oregon Electric offices in Portland, it Is probable that Portland will send a great many visitors to Eu gene Tuesday.' All the available equip ment will be on hand to take care of the excursionists, and, to avoid delays, trains will move promptly on time. Rosarians Have Special Car. The first train to Eugene Tuesday will leave the Jefferson-street station at 7:45 A. M. To this will be attached a special car for the Royal Rosarians. Prominent business and railroad men, to take' part in ' the exercises at Eu gene, also will be on this train. There will be coaches sufficient to take care of all who wish to join with Eugene in the celebration of Electric day. More than 100 members of the Fort- I land Transportation Club will Join the party. i r J. E. Vverlein, president of the club. said yesterday that at least one spe cial car will be reserved to accommo-1 date the club members leaving here fori Eugene Tuesday morning. Many others will leave Monday afternoon. At the regular weekly luncheon on Tuesday more than 35 members expressed their intention of Joining in the excursion. I Since then many others have notified I the officers that they will Join the party. EUGENE MAKES PREPARATIONS beLAkieraffdfforrison.
